Hex, New Series...

I have never watched Hex, it looked rubbish/not my cup of tea. But the latest trailers for it look so bad they are making me laugh! I am guessing that one of the girls has given birth to a half human half demon/devil baby?

What makes me laugh is that these two girls are standing over a cot saying something like "I hope he doesn't take after his father"...I have some advice to them. If you don't want him to turn out a bit odd DON'T KEEP THE COT IN A DUSTY, SCARY OLD ATTIC WITH A SPOOKY OLD ROCKING HORSE!!! The kid is bound to be affected by this and will more than likely grow up to be a bit creepy. They should have decorated a nice room in the main part of the home and have Winnie The Pooh wallpaper and some nice musical mobiles hanging above the bed...

HEX was alright, ok we are not talking multi million budgeted costume drama or with the utter style of a Buffy or Alias but from SKY is was a decent effort at genre telly.
Demons/devils, witches and lesbian ghosts, how could you go wrong!

Great to have it back

Ditto. I thought from the series 1 trailers it was going to be very good but in the end just stuck with it to see how it went. All things considered it just wasn't very good and the new trailers make me think I won't bother with this series.

I watched, and disliked, the first season. It just jumped from plot point to plot point without actually explaining what happened. I tried watching the first of season 2, and apart from the tit shot to get people watching, I found it utterly pointless, so much so that I didn't make it past the second ad break before I just put 24 back on.

They should have shown The 4400 Season 2 before this tripe. That's a show I'm looking forward to.

Watched it all. Just in case it got better. It didn't. Garbage. Don't bother.
